The Matrix Product State Fermionic Quantum Emulator (MPS-FQE) delivers a matrix product state backend to the Openfermion-FQE fermionic circuit simulator.
Installing MPS-FQE can be done by executing the install.sh script in the current directory.
MPS-FQE depends on block2 v>=0.5.2, pyblock3 v>=0.2.9rc4, and Openfermion-FQE v >= 0.3.0.
All submissions, including submissions by project members, require review. We use GitHub pull requests for this purpose. Consult GitHub Help for more information on using pull requests. Furthermore, please make sure your new code comes with extensive tests! We use automatic testing to make sure all pull requests pass tests and do not decrease overall test coverage by too much. Make sure you adhere to our style guide. Just have a look at our code for clues. We mostly follow PEP 8 and use the corresponding linter to check for it. Code should always come with documentation, which is generated automatically and can be found here.
We use Github issues for tracking requests and bugs.
